Instructions

Lightly mash the blueberries (if you’re using frozen ones, make sure to unthaw)

Place the blueberries, coconut sugar and lemon in a medium-sized pan on the stove

Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring often

Reduce to a simmer for 15 minutes and continue to “mash” the blueberries with a fork or masher (you’ll want to mash them until they reach desired consistency, leaving some a little chunkier for even more texture in the jam)

Let it cool

Once cooled, bring to a simmer once again, add chia seeds and stir frequently for about 8-10 minutes

Remove entire mixture from heat, and let it cool completely

Transfer to a Mason jar (or other storage container), and store in the fridge

Just made my second batch of this and it is TERRIFIC!!! I used a frozen organic berry blend and the flavor is outstanding…just the right amount of sweetness. The texture and consistency of the jam is perfect, too. Thanks for posting this recipe; I’ll be using it a lot!

I just got the recipe for the jam I was wondering if you would be able to do this in larger batches in canning the jam? Reason is in the summer I do canning for the blueberries,blackberries and the strawberries to jellies and jams.
